The iCub Humanoid Robot Simulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
The authors present the prototype of a new computer simulator for the humanoid robot iCub. The iCub is a new open-source humanoid robot developed as a result of the RobotCub project (robotcub.org), a collaborative European project aiming at developing a new opensource cognitive robotics platform. The iCub simulator has been developed as part of a joint effort with the European project “ITALK” (italkproject.org) on the integration and transfer of action and language knowledge in cognitive robots. This is available open-source to all researchers interested in cognitive robotics experiments with the iCub humanoid platform.

Humanoid Robot Control Using Spiking Neural Networks
In recent years there has been an increasing amount of interest in spiking neural networks, which are more biologically realistic than rate based models. Whilst a lot of simulation work has been carried out on spiking neural networks, relatively little research has been done on the use of spiking neural networks to control robots in an environment. The main obstacle to the development of embodi...
متن کاملModelling and Simulation of the Locomotion of Humanoid Robots
Modelling and simulation is a critical stage in the design and testing of complex systems, in particular humanoid robots. Our motivation to develop a new simulator is that existing tools do not provide the flexibility needed for modelling the C-Cub, the most recent open source humanoid robot with compliant joints developed at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT). Furthermore, we are intere...
